Voyager 1 Team Accomplishes Tricky Thruster Swap

.Both Voyager probes feature three sets, or divisions, of thrusters: two sets of mindset power thrusters as well as one collection of trajectory adjustment maneuver thrusters. Throughout the mission's planetary flybys, both kinds of thrusters were used for different objectives. However as Voyager 1 takes a trip on an unvarying path away from the solar system, its own thruster needs are actually easier, and also either thruster division could be made use of to aim the space probe at The planet.
